 * Hello graphicgeek!
 * I am using your plugin for the first time and I think it is awesome.
 * I was wondering if it was possible to call shortcodes from other plugins from
   within the gg_evnts post type?
 * My specific example is that I’d like to embed a MapPress map in the post (i.e.[
   mappress mapid=”1″]) or somehow include that map as part of gg_event_info div.
 * Please let me know your thoughts on this matter.
 * Happy New Year!
 * EDIT: BTW, I’m using WP Network 3.8, event-geek 2.5.2, MapPress Easy Google Maps(
   free) 2.40.7, sixteen theme.
